No comparison to Noonan's Bonneville run--

6,000 feet vs 350 feet density altitude

One way run.

Took place on runway. It should be noted that all runways are construction according to the prevailing winds in the area. And I understand most speed runs are always downwind.

At Bonneville this guy would have run around 240 mph. Or put it this way, if Noonan were to have run his bike in the UK at sea level his run would have been approximately 275 mph.

BBB...you do realize that this is ZX14.com right? Why keep trolling around here to promote the old. archaic Bugly? Do you think anyone here really gives a shit about modded out 5 million HP T/C'd & S/C'd Busa's breaking so -called records? I know I don't and judging by the amount of responses you got on this thread, no one else does either.

Maybe you forgot that a stock 14 will beat a stock Bugly anywhere, anytime? Maybe you also forgot that the 14 has brakes and suspension? Now, why don't you take your toys and go home? Surely you can find another sandbox to play in...

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Right.........ZX-14.com isn't a 'Busa forum but just for the record :

This is not a new story, it took place a couple of months back. Elvington is only 2 miles long.
They did do a two-way pass for record purposes.

Jack Frost, 257.3 and 228, average 242mph.
Frank Gillebaard, 265.2 and 229, average 247mph.

Jack's bike is road-legal.

Make of it what you will !
